Former Republican Rep. Bob Beauprez, who held Colorado's 7th District seat for two terms before running for governor in 2006, endorsed veteran Lang Sias in the GOP primary this year. Sias is vying with Aurora City Councilman Ryan Frazier for the right to face Rep. Ed Perlmutter, and Beauprez gave Sias his blessing in no uncertain terms: "Congress is full of overly self-impressed, unprincipled people obsessed with the title and trappings of the office. Lang has already achieved more than enough titles, promotions, and awards. ... He actually wants to go to Congress to serve us."
